Sudirawan Children's Dance School

visit the Sudirawan Children's Dance School, a NEW Grand Circle Foundation site. The school is run by Sudirawan and his wife with the goal of encouraging Balinese art and cultural preservation. The school provides an almost free education in traditional dance and music in the hopes of getting more young Balinese children interested in learning these declining arts. Here, we'll meet students who will teach us some of the moves of traditional Legong dancing. Note the precise footwork and finger movements and the ornate costumes of the dancers. Afterward, we'll be treated to a special performance accompanied by a live band—and perhaps we'll even dance along at the end.Read more
